In 2024, imported movies accounted for around **** percent of the total box office revenue in China, after hitting the lowest point in 2022. Compared to a decade ago, slightly less than half of the cinema ticket sales revenue in the country were generated from domestically produced movies.
As of 2011,China Film Administration adopted the term "box office in China" instead of the earlier used "urban box office in China". It has not clarified if the box office revenue covers urban areas of China as it did until 2010.
